Looking at those posters about washing your hands hit different these days.

Not in the way how society collapses into factions of enemies, but how the government would respond during such a crisis. And looking at this alternate world where a pandemic rips the US into shambles of lawlessness, while in the middle of a pandemic ourselves, makes me see the many details that the devs got right if one should happen right now.

Ubisoft Massive makes immaculate worlds to traverse and explore. Like saving hostages, or the usual clearing the outpost missions. that moves the plot forward, but it’s also easy to get sidetracked in doing activities randomly found while you are prowling the streets. There are a handful of missions scattered around Washington D.C. There’s so much content to do but most of it is either boring or dragged on for too long. When you start a fresh new character, The Division 2 suffers from what I dub the Ubisoft open-world syndrome. Let me get this out of the way first: I am only praising and loving The Division 2 only after I’ve passed the big hump that is the grind to level 30 and completing the main mission thread. The Division 2 as a looter-shooter is in a really good state, but only if you are in the endgame. It did so well recently that they decided it’s still worth adding more content than initially planned.Īs such, this sounds like a good time to try out The Division 2, right? After spending more than 60 hours recently, in the base game as well as in the Warlords Of New York expansion, I have lots to say about the game.Īnd if you’re here from looking up the title: the short answer is a definite yes with caveats. It’s impressive to see The Division 2, the 2019 RPG looter-shooter from Ubisoft Massive, has been doing well this recent years.
